Chegg's mess-up

After ordering a book off of Chegg.com I was surprised to have it not arrive by the guaranteed date of arrival. So I took it upon myself to confront the problem until it was resolved. This is the exact conversation I had with the Chegg representative aka "AnneMarie"



You are now chatting with 'AnneMarie'

AnneMarie: Hello! Thank you for contacting Chegg Live Chat, where we care about the environment and plant a tree for every textbook rented. How may I help you?

Victoriana Dan: My book order says it was delivered through "Our Partner" on the 13th but I still havn't received it

AnneMarie: I'm happy to help you with that!

AnneMarie: Are you referring to the book Ethics Selections from Classical and Contemporary Writers?

Victoriana Dan: No ma'am. It is the History of the English Language

AnneMarie: Thank you for verifying.

Victoriana Dan: foshow

AnneMarie: Please allow me a moment while I look into that. I appreciate your patience.

AnneMarie: I'm very sorry that you didn’t get your on the guaranteed date of 1/15/10! I can try to track the original shipment down. In the meantime, I can re-order the book for you and you should get it in four to seven business days, or I can cancel the order and issue a refund. Please understand that we stand by our shipment guarantee, so you'll be getting a refund for the shipping since this is late, and, again, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

Victoriana Dan: okie dokie! I would like ya to re-order it cause I would still like the book

Victoriana Dan: or should I re-order it somehow?

AnneMarie: I'm happy to re-order the book for you, and I'm truly sorry about the inconvenience this has caused.

AnneMarie: No. I will process this request for you.

AnneMarie: Again, I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Victoriana Dan: I forgive you, as long as you really really mean it.

AnneMarie: Is there anything else I may assist you with today?

Victoriana Dan: No...im good. Thanks though. Have a super day!

AnneMarie: Have a great day too!

6:15

I went to bed as early as I could. I set my alarm for 6:15, allowing myself time to slowly get up and take a shower before my 8:00am class. I fell asleep unusually fast and rested soundly throughout the night. The next thing I remember is waking with a start and looking at the clock.

8:54.

I get angry at myself for turning off the alarm in my sleep. I didn't even remember doing it. I look at my phone.

I didn't turn the alarm off. It is still set to go off.

I look at my roommate's clocks in confusion.

8:55.

8:56.

I check my phone to see what time I set the alarm.

6:15 pm.

Distraction

Hey Babe, formerly known as Samantha. Perhaps you are curious as to how I have created this bloggy-blog. Well the truth is I created it about 3 years ago and never did anything with it. Now it is serving me as a distraction from homework.
The End.
